Anker SOLIX C300 vs UGREEN PowerRoam 600
Side-by-side on the specs that decide it — surge, capacity, runtime and price.
Both models' specs verified against manufacturer listings · Last updated
The short answer
Anker SOLIX C300 costs $220 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 600 holds 136% more energy (680Wh vs 288Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 600 has 900W more surge headroom (1500W vs 600W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- Anker SOLIX C300 is 9.0 lb lighter (8.6 lb vs 17.6 lb).
Neither of these will start a sump pump or well pump — both surge below the ~3,400W those motors need. If home backup with pumps is your use case, look at higher-surge models instead of either of these.
Anker's smallest. 288Wh at $179 with three USB-C ports — aimed squarely at people charging modern devices, not running appliances.
Best for: Content creators and travelers with a bag full of USB-C gear.
Where it falls short:
- 300W output is device-only territory
- 100W solar input
UGREEN's entry unit punches slightly above its output class thanks to a 1,500W surge, but 600W of continuous power keeps it in device-and-small-appliance territory.
Best for: Campers who want a fast-charging sub-1kWh unit from a mainstream electronics brand.
Where it falls short:
- 600W output rules out heaters and compressors
- 680Wh is weekend-scale
